That's a rather interesting gun as you say . And the price is a good bit more friendly then the one the guy in MI has .

The lack of safety I don't really care for but I could make do I suppose .

The 16 & 20 were 28 inches, I don't know Ithaca's at all but do not think they were NID's . 20 was poorly re-stocked would not recommend it to anybody . 16 was a shootable gun not in collector condition though. Seems the Super 10 was used less than the others, if in fact they all came from the same place.

I was at a flea market over the weekend and there was a gun with a tag saying it was an Ithaca 10ga. I gave it only a cursory look because I have neither a need for nor an interest in owning one so I can't speak to condition or even model, and for some reason my mind never seems to go into "hey, maybe I can make some money on this!" mode. I do seem to remember it had the star engraving on the hinge pin. I thought about going back for another look having seen them discussed here and elsewhere; the tag said $800 I think. I expect you're all going to tell me I made a huge mistake?

Got it. Maybe the next time the fleas are in town I can do a better job .

My caution was I don't know Ithaca's at all. This exchange was valuable in figuring out what was what.

After I bought the Super 10 visiting Danny Patton's shop he showed me several older Ithaca's that had severe stock problems. He was repairing them but did say in his experence the NID is the one to have. Stock design is much better less likely to have problems
